because…oh. my. god.
What a total douche.
Also…Taylor Swift is a classy, classy lady, ya’ll. Because instead of being ANGRY (rightfully) this is what she said to reporters…
“I was excited to be onstage because I just won the award. And then I
was excited that Kanye West was onstage. Then, I wasn’t excited
anymore.”
Kanye has, obviously, apologized to Swift on his blog, saying: “I’m sooooo sorry to Taylor Swift and her fans and her mom. I spoke to her mother right after and she
said the same thing my mother would’ve said. She is very talented! …
I’m in the wrong for going on stage and taking away from her moment!”
But…whatever…still a douche.
Anne Green says
He is pitiful. Especially when Jay Leno asked him what his Mom would have thought.
Teena in Toronto says
That was soooo uncool of him.
Naomi Jesson says
Boo they took it off before I could view it :*(

He’s just an idiot! Good for Taylor for taking the high road…she’s such a great role model for girls (my daughters are huge fans). Not only does Kanye West come out of it looking like an ass, but did he think that Beyonce would be happy that he did it?
Glad to hear that Beyonce gave her speech to Taylor…that is classy.
Oh, and Kanye apologizing on his BLOG??? Not sufficient…he should apologize to her in person.

“But…whatever…still a douche.”
I mostly said this when I first read about it. He should not be allowed to be nominated in any music awards arena that will be televised, because he’s always a douche about it when either he doesn’t win (who am I kidding? he’s a douche WHEN he wins, too) – and this was completely unfair of a thing to do to someone. NO MATTER WHO IT WAS, not just because it is a white chick – she is amazingly talented and deserved that award like no one’s business.

What a complete ass for stealing this moment from Taylor Swift. I don’t believe for ones second that had anything to do with Beyonce’s video, he was just trying to cause a scene and get some publicity. Guess what was announced today? His tour dates! Guess where he is tonight? On Jay Leno! Now everyone will be talking Kanye, Kanye, Kanye. What a pathetic moron to step on someone (and a sweet young girl, at that!) to hoist himself further into the limelight.
At least Beyonce saved the night by giving her acceptance speech to Taylor. That showed some class.
Jen says
Oh my god. What an a’hole. Poor Taylor. She barely even got to say anything. Good thing is, she looks waaaaaaaaay better when all is said and done. Sour grapes, eh?
